Sometimes, there are items in your craft collection that work for more than one purpose. And, that’s definitely a win! Today, I use a sentiment from Stampin’ Up!’s Layered Thoughts Photopolymer Stamp Set to create a Valentine fun fold card. The “Love” sentiment fits perfectly for this occasion. Find this stamp set in Stampin’ Up!’s Annual Catalog. I’ve used it to create a variety of birthday, thank you and thinking of you cards. So I’m glad to stretch this set even more.
And, then I combined both with a very simple fun fold. Here’s a view of the inside of the card.
